As our recent name change suggests, Vintage Aviation News wants to cover as much of aviation history as possible, and it’s hard to imagine a more important contribution to the advent of powered flight than the work of the Wright family, with brothers Wilbur and Orville, along with their sister Katharine, paving the way for everything which followed. This is where the First Flight Society plays a vital role in keeping alive the memory of those early days of aviation, and it is why we wish to support them with our coverage of their activities. Right now, the organization is holding their annual sweepstakes, ticket sales from which will contribute to their ongoing efforts to help preserve and celebrate the ingenuity and derring-do of our aviation pioneers. The winner of these sweepstakes will receive a brand new Jeep Rubicon 392 as the following press release reveals…
KITTY HAWK, N.C. – July 11, 2022 – The Rubicon 392 is the ONLY WRANGLER with a 6.4L HEMI® V8 engine. This Jeep is highly sought after, and we have one on hand to give away to one lucky winner! This Rubicon comes in Silver Zynith Clear coat exterior and a Black interior with Leather trimmed bucket seats, 8-speed automatic transmission and LT285/70R17C OWL off-road tires.
